Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee) said he could be ready for the start of offseason workouts but wants to be completely healthy before he returns so he does not have to deal with the injury during the season.

Huddle Up: Freeman probably will participate in some offseason workouts and should be 100 percent for training camp. He likely will continue to see most of the work at running back and can be at least a No. 2 fantasy running back even with Tevin Coleman on the roster.

Posted: 1/18/2018 12:03pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman could miss some offseason workouts but should be fine for the start of training camp. He will continue to be the No. 1 running back for the Falcons and should be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues in 2018.

Posted: 1/13/2018 7:25pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee) said he played the end of the season with a sprained medial collateral ligament and a sprained posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, but he is hoping to avoid offseason surgery.

Huddle Up: Freeman should enter 2018 as the lead back for Atlanta, but with Tevin Coleman also in the mix, Freeman should be viewed as a high-end RB2.

Posted: 1/13/2018 4:56pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman caught five passes for 26 yards and one touchdown in the Divisional Round playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday, Jan. 13. He also rushed for seven yards on 10 carries during the game.

Huddle Up: Freeman finished the regular season with 865 yards and seven touchdowns this season and likely will remain the team's starting running back in 2018. He also has value in point-per-reception leagues since he recorded 36 catches and 317 receiving yards. He can be at least a No. 2 running back for fantasy owners next season.

Posted: 1/11/2018 11:05am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee) had a limited status in practice Thursday, Jan. 11, but is not on the injury report for the Divisional Round playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Huddle Up: Freeman should be fine for this weekend's playoff tilt. While he didn't succeed on the ground last week, he flourished in the passing game, giving him more value on DraftKings this weekend.

Posted: 1/10/2018 2:08pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman does not appear to be in any danger of missing the playoff game and should receive his normal workload. He is coming off a solid performance in the Wild Card round and can be a No. 1 fantasy running back in most leagues.

Posted: 1/9/2018 3:16pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman's ceiling will always be stinted as long as Tevin Coleman is healthy, but he has proven to be successful nonetheless. The versatile back made up for his paltry 11 carries last week with nine catches for 85 yards. Looking ahead, Freeman is a justifiable second-round fantasy selection with added value in PPR leagues.

Posted: 1/6/2018 8:45pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed 18 times for 66 yards and a touchdown and caught one pass for three yards in a 26-13 win over the Los Angeles Rams Saturday, Jan. 6.

Huddle Up: Freeman didn't have a ton of running room in this one, but the final stat line looks solid thanks to the touchdown. As long as the Falcons remain alive in the playoffs, Freeman will remain one of the stronger fantasy backs.

Posted: 1/4/2018 3:30pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee) was a limited participant in practice for the second straight day Thursday, Jan. 4. However, the team declared he'll be all systems go for the team's playoff game Saturday, Jan. 6, against the Los Angeles Rams.

Huddle Up: Freeman never really appeared to be in doubt for Atlanta's Wild Card action, but his performance to close out the year might make you think twice about utilizing his services in fantasy this weekend. While the 25-year-old was heavily involved in the passing game in Week 17, he amassed just 59 rushing yards on 22 carries over his final two contests. At the same time, he figures to still be a solid option, as the Rams ranked 28th versus the run this season.

Posted: 1/3/2018 1:27pm ET

Huddle Up: The Los Angeles Rams were horrendous against the run this year, so both Freeman and Tevin Coleman have a prime opportunity to help the Falcons upset the Rams. Expect Freeman to be active, but if he's not 100% then Atlanta could limit his snaps.

Posted: 1/2/2018 1:30pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman needs to rest up in order to be ready for Atlanta's playoff bout this weekend. The star running back has one less day to recover since the Falcons play on Saturday. It's hard to imagine Freeman missing out on a playoff game, though. As for next year, Freeman still has RB1 appeal with more value in PPR leagues.

Posted: 12/24/2017 6:14pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed 11 times for 36 yards and caught two passes for 20 yards in a 23-13 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 16. He also lost a fumble.

Huddle Up: Freeman picked a bad time to have one of his least productive games of the season, and he has also fumbled four times in the last three games. With Tevin Coleman back in action, Freeman will be a RB2 against the Carolina Panthers in Week 17.

Posted: 12/18/2017 9:16pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman collected 126 rushing yards and a touchdown on 22 attempts in the team's Week 15 triumph Monday, Dec. 18, opposite the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He also hauled in five of seven targets in the passing game for 68 yards.

Huddle Up: Freeman saved his best performance for the most important fantasy week of the year up to this point, as both his rushing and receiving totals represented season highs for the four-year veteran. Freeman is a legitimate RB1, so an output like this shouldn't be surprising at all. However, his owners have to be thrilled he came through when it counted most.

Posted: 12/7/2017 8:52pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed 24 times for 91 yards and a touchdown in a 20-17 win over the New Orleans Saints Thursday, Dec. 7.

Huddle Up: Freeman has resumed his role as the lead back in Atlanta, and he should at least be a low-end RB1 moving forward.

Posted: 12/3/2017 1:45pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman returned from his concussion and received a majority of the carries against the Vikings. He should remain the leading rusher for the Falcons and can be a No. 2 fantasy running back next week.

Posted: 12/1/2017 12:21pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 1, and is not on the injury report for Week 13.

Huddle Up: Freeman probably will share playing time with Tevin Coleman this week against the Minnesota Vikings. He has gone five games without a touchdown but should receive a decent amount of touches during the game. He can be a No. 2 running back or a flex option in most leagues.

Posted: 11/30/2017 3:59pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) was a full participant in practice for the second straight day Thursday, Nov. 30.

Huddle Up: Head coach Dan Quinn has already said that Freeman won't be limited when he suits up, so that's good news as it pertains to his outlook for Week 13. Although he draws a tough defense in his return from a two-game absence, Freeman is still worth plugging in as an RB1 regardless.

Posted: 11/30/2017 9:48am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman won't be limited in Week 13 as he returns from a concussion, according to head coach Dan Quinn.

Huddle Up: He has a tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, but Freeman at full strength is an RB1 in fantasy.

Posted: 11/29/2017 3:01pm ET

Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) returned to practice Wednesday, Nov. 29, and was a full participant.

Huddle Up: Freeman cleared the league's mandated concussion protocol earlier Wednesday and it's a good sign he was not even listed as a limited participant. It appears he'll be ready to play Sunday against the Vikings, back in a timeshare with Tevin Coleman, who did a great job in Freeman's stead.

Posted: 11/29/2017 6:05am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) has cleared the concussion protocol and will return to practice Wednesday, Nov. 29, according to head coach Dan Quinn.

Huddle Up: Freeman appears poised to return this week, but he'll have a tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. He still has to be considered one of the top 12 backs this week as an RB1.

Posted: 11/28/2017 9:26pm ET

Huddle Up: It's been 16 days since the injury, which seems like ample time to recover, but until the NFL gives Freeman the green light it's Tevin Coleman's job. Keep an eye out for updates as we get closer to game day.

Posted: 11/24/2017 10:06am ET

Huddle Up: Considering the fact he suffered his second concussion in four months in Week 10, it is hardly surprising the Falcons are holding him out at least two weeks, even though he logged two limited practices this week. In his absence, Tevin Coleman should be considered a high-end RB2 and a worthy fantasy starter in most leagues.

Posted: 11/24/2017 8:44am ET

Huddle Up: No surprise here, and Tevin Coleman remains an RB1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Posted: 11/23/2017 8:44am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) will be a limited participant in practice Thursday, Nov. 23, but he remains in the concussion protocol.

Huddle Up: It's a stretch to think he'll clear the rest of the phases of the protocol and be in a position to have a large role in the game Sunday. Tevin Coleman is a great RB1 option this week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Posted: 11/22/2017 3:15pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman is still going through the concussion protocol and needs to be cleared to be cleared before he is allowed to play. Owners should check on his status later in the week to see if he has a chance to play in Week 12. Owners should have other options available in case Freeman sits again.

Posted: 11/22/2017 5:26am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) remains in the concussion protocol Wednesday, Nov. 22. Freeman, according to a source close to him, feels ready to play, but he has to go through the entire process.

Huddle Up: He looks iffy to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week. Tevin Coleman struggled with the lead role last week, but he remains an attractive RB1 if Freeman is out.

Posted: 11/18/2017 3:04pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) has been ruled out of the team's Week 11 game.

Huddle Up: Tevin Coleman should receive most of the playing time at running back against the Seattle Seahawks. He can be considered a No. 2 running back or a flex option in all leagues.

Posted: 11/17/2017 2:13pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman was absent from practice both Thursday and Friday putting his status in serious doubt for Monday's game in Seattle. If he is ruled out it would be Tevin Coleman handling the workload, with Terron Ward also chipping in.

Posted: 11/16/2017 9:19am ET

Huddle Up: Freeman is likely out this week, and Tevin Coleman has RB1 written all over him against the Seattle Seahawks.

Posted: 11/13/2017 11:13am ET

Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) is in the concussion protocol, according to head coach Dan Quinn. Freeman has not been ruled out for Week 11, however, contrary to previous reports. Freeman suffered a concussion in the preseason. He injured his knee against the Carolina Panthers.

Huddle Up: Tevin Coleman has the potential to be featured next week, but we'll need to keep tabs on Freeman's status throughout the week. The good news is that Freeman has an extra day to recover since the Falcons play next Monday night. If Freeman does miss the game then Coleman has RB1 upside even in a tough matchup versus the Seattle Seahawks.

Posted: 11/13/2017 8:14am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) is unlikely to play in Week 11 after suffering his second concussion of the season. It's possible he could miss multiple games.

Huddle Up: Tevin Coleman becomes an RB1 against the Seattle Seahawks next week. Terron Ward could also be a sneaky flex play.

Posted: 11/12/2017 8:49pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Tevin Coleman rushed 20 times for 83 yards and a touchdown in Week 10 against the Dallas Cowboys, filling in nicely once RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) left in the first half.

Huddle Up: Coleman would be the bellcow in Week 11 on Monday Night Football in Seattle if Freeman isn't clear to play, but the good news is that he gets an extra day to make it through the league's protocol. Coleman would be a solid RB2 if Freeman is inactive.

Posted: 11/10/2017 2:30pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee) practiced in full for a second straight day on Friday, Nov. 10, and he has been removed from the injury report.

Huddle Up: Freeman has been on the injury report for several weeks but he has yet to miss any game time. He remains a solid fantasy option against the league's No. 13 ranked rush defense of the Cowboys.

Posted: 11/9/2017 9:41am ET

Huddle Up: Freeman hasn't reached the end zone in four straight games. His odds don't look good this week against a Dallas Cowboys team that is tough against the position. Freeman is in the RB1/RB2 turn this week.

Posted: 11/8/2017 3:50pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman has been limited in practice due to an assortment of ailments lately, but he hasn't missed any game time. Double check on Friday to make sure he is playing, but he is likely just taking it easy to preserve himself for game day.

Posted: 11/5/2017 2:13pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed 11 times for 46 yards in Week 9 against the Carolina Panthers and he had four grabs for 18 yards on his five targets.

Huddle Up: You knew it would be a grind for Freeman, as he was up against the league's No. 4 rushing defense entering play. He faces another marquee matchup in Week 10 when the Cowboys come calling.

Posted: 11/3/2017 2:10pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (abdomen, shoulder) was a limited participant in practice Friday, Nov. 3, for the third consecutive day, but he was removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 9 game with the Carolina Panthers.

Huddle Up: Freeman is a bit banged up and he is facing the No. 4 ranked rushing defense in the NFL, as the Panthers allow just 81.6 yards per game on the ground. Benching Freeman isn't a good idea when he is active, but temper expectations. He might be best used as a low-end RB2 in most fantasy leagues with the tough matchup on the road. Tevin Coleman might also see more touches if Freeman needs to rest more or he aggravates one of his ailments.

Posted: 11/3/2017 10:22am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (shoulder) is 'fine' according to head coach Dan Quinn and not be limited in Week 9 against the Carolina Panthers.

Huddle Up: Freeman is averaging only 11 carries and has been held out of the end zone since the team's Week 5 bye, so owners could be forgiven if they want to see the Falcons commit to him a bit more before starting him this week. The reality is most owners don't have that luxury of benching him and Freeman is versatile enough to overcome what is a difficult Week 9 matchup versus the Carolina Panthers. Owners should start him as they normally would and hope the team uses him like they did prior to the bye.

Posted: 11/2/2017 2:42pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (abdomen, shoulder) was limited in practice Thursday, Nov. 2, with what is now listed as abdomen and shoulder injuries as opposed to neck and shoulder injuries.

Huddle Up: The ailments don't appear to be too worrisome and Freeman isn't believed to be in danger of missing this week's contest. His status will need to be monitored over the next couple of days, but he should still be viewed as a low-end RB1 in PPR leagues.

Posted: 11/1/2017 2:08pm ET

Huddle Up: Freeman, as has been the case with the Falcons as a whole, is having somewhat of an off year. That is, at least by his standards and our expectations of him. Even in his down year he has tallied better than 600 total yards and five touchdowns. He's more of an RB2 this week in a tough matchup with the Carolina Panthers.

Posted: 10/30/2017 11:29am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (shoulder) will be limited in practice this week as he deals with a shoulder injury, according to head coach Dan Quinn.

Huddle Up: The injury doesn't sound serious, so the hope is that Freeman won't aggravate the ailment throughout the week. Freeman needs to be started as long as he's active, but the Carolina Panthers have been an elite fantasy rush defense this season. Expectations for Freeman in Week 9 should be lowered.

Posted: 10/29/2017 1:22pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed for 41 yards on 12 carries against the New York Jets in Week 8. He also caught one pass for 20 yards during the game.

Huddle Up: Freeman has gone four straight games without posting at least 75 running yards and has received 12 carries or less in each of the last three games. He will continue to be a main part of the running game for the Falcons and should be considered a No. 2 running back next week.

Posted: 10/23/2017 4:34am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman ran 12 times for 72 yards in a Week 7 game against the New England Patriots. He also caught three passes for 18 yards.

Huddle Up: For the second week in a row Freeman was kept from the end zone, but he nearly accounted for 100 yards of total offense. He remains a solid RB1 selection who should find paydirt again real soon.

Posted: 10/15/2017 2:01pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed nine times for 68 yards in Week 6 against the Miami Dolphins and he added two receptions for 11 yards on four targets.

Huddle Up: It was Freeman's first game of the season without a touchdown run, as he has managed five scores in his first four outings. He'll look to get back into the end zone in Week 7 in a Super Bowl rematch with the New England Patriots on the road.

Posted: 10/1/2017 4:32pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed 18 times for 58 yards and a touchdown in the Week 4 game against the Buffalo Bills and he added two receptions for 20 yards.

Huddle Up: Freeman was busy in the run game, especially with the Falcons down Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu for most of the contest due to injuries. You'll need to find alternates in fantasy for Week 5, as the Falcons are on a bye.

Posted: 9/24/2017 3:57pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman ran the ball 21 times for 106 yards in a 30-26 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday, Sept. 24.

Huddle Up: Another week, another strong performance for Freeman, who remains an elite RB1 option as long as he puts up numbers like this.

Posted: 9/17/2017 9:53pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman carried 19 times for 84 yards and two touchdowns in Week 2 against Green Bay.

Huddle Up: Freeman was effective in the red zone early in the game, then the team used the back to hammer on the Packers and chew clock with a big lead. He remains an elite fantasy back heading into Week 3 at Detroit and beyond.

Posted: 9/10/2017 3:33pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman rushed 12 times for 37 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 at Chicago and he added two receptions for two yards on his only two targets.

Huddle Up: Freeman didn't do much for his fantasy owners against a surprisingly stingy Chicago rush defense, but at least he salvaged the stat line with the rushing score. He faces another tough matchup when Green Bay invades Atlanta's new stadium for Sunday Night Football in Week 2.

Posted: 8/29/2017 10:55am ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman is no longer in the concussion protocol and has been fully cleared to return to practice.

Huddle Up: It may have taken longer for him to return that owners would have liked, but the Falcons were always going to be cautious with their new $8 million man at running back. Owners should consider him a high-end RB1 in drafts and a very good play in Week 1 against the Chicago Bears.

Posted: 8/28/2017 5:01pm ET

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (concussion) has been ruled out for the final preseason game. He was limited to individual drills during practice Monday, Aug. 28.

Huddle Up: Freeman is making progress in his rehab and should be ready for the start of the regular season. He will continue to be a focal point in the team's offense this season and should be considered a No. 1 fantasy running back in all leagues.
